Low voltage penetrators

Benestad’s largest business area is penetrators for signal and power distribution to protect electronics in harsh environments. Our hermetic glass-to-metal-sealed penetrators are extremely stable and can operate under high pressures and at elevated temperatures.

We deliver penetrators in a variety of different metals and glass combinations such as Titanium Gr.5, Inconel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

We tailor solutions to your functional requirements, whether you need embedded penetrators that reduce leakage paths with unique freedom of design or insert solutions. Benestad combines compact pin patterns with efficient field proven sealing solutions.

For space, we have light weight hermetic solutions suited for ultra-high vacuum. For subsea, we deliver qualified designs for ultra-deep waters up to 4000 meters.

For oil and gas applications, we have penetrators operating up to 20 000 psi. This means they can see the highest well pressures and well fluid.

Benestad offers a wide range of penetrator solutions:

• Embedded penetrators
• Insert penetrators
• Coax penetrators
• Hybrid penetrators combining high current and signal pins
• Advanced electrical barrier designs
• Ceramic insulated conductors

We have our own soldering facilities that allow introduction of different types of cables or direct integration onto circuit boards. We also design and include a variety of barrier elements for different media and temperatures like bootseals or potting.
